Chinese Gamblers.

On Wednesday evening Marshal
Kaulukou, with officer Hopkins and
some native officers, raided no less than
four Chinese gambling houses. They
arrested seven players at "pakepio,"
and yesterday an eighth was caught A
Chinaman who assisted the officers was
set upon aherward, when going home,
by gang Of his countrymen and re-
ceived very rough handling, stick
being used over his head with malig-
nant force. He bravely fought his way
through the rufiians and escaped. The
rascals are some of them known and
will probably have to answer dearly for
the outrage.

New Propeller for the Man-o'-war.

A new propeller for the Hawaiian
training gunboat Kaimiloa was success
fully cast at the Honolulu Iron Works
on Wednesday night. 1t is two-bladed,
OF 10 feet pitch, s feet 3 inches
diameter, with an estimated weight Of
1900 pounds. The material is gun
metal and cleaner casting it would
be pretty hard to match, as 1t requires
scarcely any polishing except filing off
the streaks where the metal was pour
ed in Gun metal will withstand the
corrosive influences to which iron is
very subject when placed in near prex-
unity to vessels copper. This job
turned out finer than expectations and
is a decided triumph OF local industry.

SUPREME COURT.
AT CHAMBERS.

Before Judge Preston, Thursday,
February 18th, the only case heard was
in the guardianship of Maria Blessing,
a minor, which was an application by
MIS-. Catherine Steward, guardian, pray
ing that her second account be ex-
amined and allowed. The guardians
expenditures we're $3.50. IS, and receipts
$3o5.os, leaving a balance due the
guardian Of 5000. Since filing her
last account the guardian had deposited
in the Savings Bank the sum Of $Ioo,
which accounts for the above balance
being against the ward. After examin-
ing said account with the vouchers, it
was approved. The guardian appeared
in person.

A Ditch Encountered,

Yesterday afternoon party of ladies
and gentlemen visited the Pail with a
buggy and double team. On returning,
they complained Of a very annoying in
cident during the drive. When about
halfway between the Halfway House
and the Pail an obstruction was en-
countered in the shape of a ditch,
about five feet wide and seven feet
deep, which had been dug across the
road. Two or three narrow planks had
been thrown across the ditch, making a
very inefficient bridge. Both going up
and returning the horses had to be un,,
hitched and LED, and the buggy dragged
across by hand.

Diffusion of the Chinese.

"peole have little idea,' said A. r.
Shattuck, who arrived in New York
from Canton recently show rapidly
the passion for emigrating is growing
in China. The whole southern Asiatic
coast and many of the Pacific islands
are filling with Chinese. In spite of
our prohibitory laws not few Chinese
manage to smuggle themselves into our
country, and they are fairly swarming
in many places where nothing is done
to keep them out,
"In 1871 only few thousand Chi
nese lived in Singapore. To-day the
new China Town is the feature of the
place. Singapore has now $4,000
Chinese residents, and last year $50, 900
Chinese landed in the city on their way
to other parts of the coast. Cochin
China, which is now French prov
ince, is rapidly filling with Chinese.
Here, as in all parts Of the south coast
of Asia, the Chinese excel the natives
in intelligence, education and business
qualifications. They assert their supe-
riority in many ways, and treat most OF
the nativer as their inferior. In Cochin
China the Chinese merchants have alb
sorbed the greater part Of the trade.
They can beat the natives selling their
own products, and many of them are
rich.
'In Australia the Chinese are grow
ing in numbers. They control the
trade of the Gilbert Islands, and are
gaining ground IN Hawaii. In many
of the Pacific Islands, like Fiji where
there is considerable trade, visitor is
likely to see a group Of Chinese before
his eye lights on native, The Chi
nese are overruning Burmah, and there
is a large colony of them in Mandalay.
A large party of travelling Chinese
merchants who were on the road in
Burmah few weeks ago, were mis-
taken by the British troops for Decoits.
The soldiers fired upon them and sew
eral poor fellows were killed.
"The increasing migration among
the hordes of China is one OF the
most interesting signs of the times.
The Mongolians are gradually diffusing
themselves over large part OF the
world-a fact that deeply concerns
many nations, and is also indicative OF
the great changes going on in China,
from which emigration would have
been impossible years ago."-B,00klyH

One who travels much in this coun-

sion hat the hotel-keepers are much

country are the bills Of fare so fine, so
elaborate, so handsome, as ours. They
are often 4 tinc-art and intellectual

tellectual treat. no other people would
Dc so well fed at hotels as we are. We
do not spare language-French, Ger
man, sometimes English, are impressed
into the service. The traveller can not
always read his bill of fare, but that is
the fault Of his education; and he is
lucky in one thing-if he can not tell
what he Is going to have, he is troubled
by no disappointment, but he Ear rare
ly tell what he has had after he
tastes it. A clamor is now and then
raised that the people of the United
States, so assertive Of their nationality
and proud Of their language, ought to
have their bills of fare printed in En-.

Gibbons, who was to administer the
sacrament Of confirmation to them, and
l was specially anxious to have them
well prepared. We were out in II

was explaining to them that it was
a Bishop alone who could administer
the sacrament. l was at a loss, for a
moment, to show them by a familiar
figure the relative difference between

the 'honk, honk,' of q flock Of wild
geese flying over our heads. and
called the children's attention to the
leader who headed the flight. This

an idea of what II Bishop is-the leader
OF his flock. We got along after that
first rate, and in Il day or two, when
the Archbishop arrived, | related with
pride how much progress my little
charges had made, and begged his
Grace to question them himself in the
catechism. He promised to do so, and
soon the hour of the ceremony was at
hand. The children were all assem-
bled, looking their best, and the Arch
bishop, after giving them some kindly
words Of encouragement and adj
vice, before going into the church, be-
gan to put a few questions to them. re.

understanding of the nature of the
sacrament they were about to receive.
